The conclusion?:
1) Codeblocks does nothing wrong (but it could be improved see 4) )

--- End quote ---
Yes, that was my conclusion; the root cause is the PGI Compiler has missing path to find the linker used by its ar.exe wrapper program.


--- Quote from: BlueHazzard on February 24, 2019, 08:39:20 pm ---2) There are two programs called link.exe, and if the path is wrong pgfortran will call the wrong program (can we do something against this?)

--- End quote ---
Yes, we could auto detect the correct MS Visual Studio link.exe location and add it to the compiler aux. paths


--- Quote from: BlueHazzard on February 24, 2019, 08:39:20 pm ---3) You can you detect pgfortran is using the wrong path?

--- End quote ---
No, the verbose option list the paths that the PGI compiler tried to use.


--- Quote from: BlueHazzard on February 24, 2019, 08:39:20 pm ---4) Is the output of the command if we add this verbose flag cluttered a lot? Can it be added in the normal compiler options, or has it to be added in the "extended" options?

--- End quote ---
We can remove all the advanced fixed options instead of adding it to the advanced options; this might be best.
Edit: This would allow the user to choose to use PGI ar.exe wrapper, MS link.exe, or MS lib.exe.

Edit3: https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/tickets/803/

I figure out a better patch for the OP issue; this allows the OP fix/change to be easier. And, maintains the default way on Linux and Windows. Edit2: It adds the -v for verbose option to the static link command instead of advanced options on Windows.
